I have to
interrupt your daily reading of all this great stuff to speak about something
that used to be dear to my heart but has sorta gotten clouded out by life in
general, Environmental stuff.
Here is one
survival tip for the future, learn how to swim. According to the environmental
gurus and what not out little blue planet is going to flood over and we shall
be in a virtual water world.
But there are
still those that a championing the fight and in our back yard none the less
albeit from miles away. By our back yard I mean Uganda and from miles away I
mean Sweden. Yeah you got that right; some other guys are making money by
planting trees in Uganda. Follow this link to get served. http://grist.org/list/swedish-fast-food-chain-makes-bank-by-becoming-klimatsmart/
and if that is not enough you can follow this link for some more face slapping.

Mighty painful
stuff but well it gives me hope. According to scientist there is nothing we can
do to stop global warming . I guess we can all sit back, relax and wait for Mother
Nature to lose her cool, literally, in some parts, and lose her temper in
others.
But there is
always a little something that each of us can do to help out. Like that fast
food chain in Sweden that has chosen a greener option for its business model
each of us can make small changes to the way we live to try and help our planet
heal. Imagine if the whole population of china went green, wouldn’t there be a
change in the life of that country almost overnight.
If Ugandans
chose to buy their airtime electronically and do away with those small tit-bits
of paper, how much better would the planet breath and the city be cleaner? How
about in our own homes and lifestyle? What can you and I do to help out. It may
be a small drop in the ocean but it is your drop. Let not some far off chain in
Sweden plant trees in your back yard, buy one and plant one, for you, your
children and your country.
